MISSION STATEMENT
The Pence Gallery's mission is
to serve the community through offering high caliber art exhibits
and educational programs for visitors of all ages. The Pence Gallery
fulfills this mission through museum-caliber exhibitions and educational
programs. These offerings are supported by the Pence Gallery Association
and guided by the Director. The Association raises funds through
memberships, gifts, art sales, and special events. Docent volunteers
host the Gallery during open hours and assist the Director and Gallery
Assistant with regular operations. Since its incorporation in 1976,
the Pence Gallery has served as a leader in the visual arts
of Northern California.
HISTORY
The
Pence Gallery in the heart of downtown Davis, California is a
not-for-profit
art gallery. Its name derives from the original benefactors, Joe
and Hazel Pence. The building, once the site of Joe Pence's thriving
dental practice, was gifted to the city of Davis by the couple
to be used as a venue for the fine arts. A hallmark for the fine
arts, the Pence Gallery has been a member of the Davis community
for over thirty years. Fine art exhibitions throughout the year
are partnered with art lectures, Art Smart programs, and tours.
